TIPS on Cyber Protection
Scammers are making emails so authentic using logos of brands to get you to click on the link in the email.
Do NOT click on any link that you recieve. Remain Vigilant at all times just like Happy Girl Posted.
I would also like to givew you a few tips as well to remain safe.
1. Do not store your passwords on any notepad on your mobile that is easlily accessible. (you mobile if compromised hackers can access the passwords. Instead use a Password Vault. (I can recomend a few).
2. We tend to use the same paswords for many social media or applications. Avoid using the same password. The moment one password is compromised a hacker will try usign the same password for other applications / sites. I know you dont want to remember too many passwords but if you have a password vault you can easily access the password.
3. At the very least make sure your password is no less than 10 Chcarcters with upper case & special Characters. Sentences are good to use as well but add a few special characters. eg . I LoVE mY Wife$$
4. Using browers to access password protected sites allows the brower to save the password. I highligh recommend you do not save password on your computer/laptop on any of your browsers.
5. Run an antivirus on your computer/ laptop and make sure it is updating. A simple program like a logger can be used to collect all the typing you do on your computer.
I know using a vault maybe confusing and as we grwo older we like thing to be simple. But I just want to add that the percentage of people getting hacked are people who are over 75.
I am here voluteering to help any one out. I have come from overseas and just moved to Australia and i need to engage in the community. I am here to help out in any way i can to all members of SDC.
Stay safe.
